Synopsis

When Seattle Seahawks Running Back Shaun Alexander's "Touchdown Alexander" was released last year in hardcover, it shot up the bestseller lists. And now, the release of the trade paperback features an all-new final chapter covering the 2006 football season.In his page-turning story, written with award-winning author Cecil Murphey, Shaun recounts the years that led up to his success on and off the football field, and how God first gave him the dream for the achievements that have made him a household name among football fans everywhere.And yet, Shaun's life is about more than football. His nonprofit organization, the Shaun Alexander Foundation, focuses on empowering and improving the lives of fatherless young men through education, athletics, character programs, and leadership training, inspiring them to reach their potential as mentors and role models for future generations.I decided to tell my story for several reasons: I want to show people--especially young people--that success is closer than they may think.God is "the" key to success.We need to set goals--the higher the better. If we think big and believe big, we'll act big and move in big ways.Life is to enjoy--to have fun and laugh a lot. If we're not enjoying our life, something isn't right.. Shaun Alexander
